The case centers on a strong female protagonist whose tenacity unravels the mystery and drives the show. Whether she's the friend or parent of the victim, a tenacious investigator, or an ambitious district attorney; she has a firsthand connection with the crime and she can't let it rest until the mystery is solved and the criminal is captured.
